My partner is showing early signs of jaundice and we're already working on treatment and prevention. I'm just wondering, is it safe for us to have sex while they're going through this?

Yes, it is generally safe to have sex during jaundice as long as both partners are comfortable. However, it is important to ensure that the underlying cause of jaundice has been treated and that there are no other complications present. It is always best to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

I'm concerned about my recent test results showing abnormal SGOT at 46 and SGPT at 66. I've been under treatment for six months now and currently taking a medication called Bilypsa.

I've been experiencing some trouble breathing after I have dinner and then lie down in bed. It's strange because it doesn't really happen all the time, just usually after I eat and go to lie down. I end up having to take these deep breaths through my mouth because it feels like I'm not getting enough air. But what's odd is that if I wake up in the middle of the night, I don't have the same problem. Is this something I should be concerned about?

I've been experiencing something weird and it's kinda worrying me. Every time I masturbate, the next day I feel this horrible indigestion and sometimes end up vomiting, plus there's this numb feeling. It's strange because even if my stomach is empty, I still feel like throwing up. And it takes about 4 to 5 days to get back to normal. Does this sound familiar to you or do you know what might be causing this?
